pppoe attempted install since heard was problematic. I do not use it but did get working once in another pup. I cannot confirm it does not work as may have incorrect settings if someone wants to confirm.

Thank you of the reports. I noticed that gparted is old. Dpup uses static gparted so it would need compiling it against static libs. Well...I did it for spup. I could do it again for dpup. I have those needed libs still available. But not now...

Since I left office applications out, I gave possibility to install what you need and use. I tested the Libre Office 3.4.1 sfs from the Polarpup first page link. It worked. I dont know if the fix I made is needed in dpup but it does not harm.

Iguleder has installed goffice and abiword from the squeeze repo. They need some dependencies also, but they work. Iguleder tested and posted that he couldnt find problems with squeeze repo appications.
I can post those needed dependencies if somebody wants them. You can find helpful remarks from /root/.packages/DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS file. There is clear notes what dependencies you need for abiword, goffice and gnumeric. Iguleder has done splendid job when he created his specs file. It is so clear.

But I will use anyway Libre Office. Soon they should post the next version if it is not already announced. I havent checked.

James C. I know that learning curve. I am at the first steps in e17. I think that Iguleder will post new versions with e17 so dont be afraid. Ýou will get more of it.
But...I cant answer anything concerning e17. If I dont use it much and it is included in my build, I am in trouble. Including e17 afterwards is not very difficult.... there is e17 pet in Iguleders repo and it needs only some patching to the files to get it working.

Already requests. I just wanted to know if this is useful. There is possibility that dpup will be improved with wishes from users....
Dave S. It is great to get this kind feedback what works. In the future, I dont have this much time to play and test with dpup.

My vacation stops tonight. Back to the work and less time with Puppy.

Pity as this looks like a REALLY interesting derivative_________________Spup Frugal HD and USB

Dave S. You could try how well Frisbee works. I really dont know much how well SNS and Frisbee co-operate in dpup. Not much experience. For me Frisbee has worked fine. There is now 2 dhcpcd included as I explained in Iguleders thread when I posted laptop-tools-all. And dpup had wpa_supplicant with all its own scripts. I really dont know yet what interferes with what.
